Book 3 in the #1 bestselling The 39 Clues series may just be the most thrill-packed yet! ATTENTION! Amy and Dan Cahill have been located once again, this time in the company of the notoriously unreliable Alistair Oh. Could they have been foolish enough to make an alliance? Spies report that Amy and Dan seem to be tracking the life of one of the most powerful fighters the world has ever known. If this fearsome warrior was a Cahill, his secrets are sure to be well-guarded . . . and the price to uncover them just might be lethal.

What people are saying

User Review -

Well written with some nice twists & humour,I wouldn't copy any of the behaviour that they have towards the cat like feeding it dumplings which can contain onions which wil kill the cat & cats despise the stress of frequent moving,but other than that a great book.
I wish they didn't use wird names like Alistair Oh,makes it kind of confusing at the beginning of the series.
